Throwback Thursday: JJ, King of Beepers

Posted By Dan Gibson on Thu, Jul 24, 2014 at 11:00 AM

Earlier on at my time here at the Weekly, I lamented that somehow the internet had not seemingly captured a JJ, (THE OWNER AND) the King of Beepers ad somewhere in the cloud of online nonsense.

Well, while we're still far away from a true archive of the JJ Era, guy-who-makes-movies Adam Ray has uploaded at least one ad to YouTube for our collective enjoyment. Activation, of course, required.
